Am I spending too much?

[Xobtik]

Budget (including currency): INR 1,50,000 (Aprox 2000$)

Country: India

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Game development using Unreal engine and Unity (mainly programing), Guild wars 2,Witcher 3, Skyrim with mods, any new RPG like Baldur's Gate 3, 

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

So i am building a PC from scratch and need everything. This is the list I came up with 

Cpu - ryzen 5 5600x

Motherboard - msi mpg x570 gaming edge wifi

Ram - vengeance 2 * 16 ddr4 3200

Ssd - firecuda m.2 pcie gen 4 500 gb

HDD - baracuda 1tb hdd

Psu - corsair RM750x

Case - Lian Li lancool II mesh black

GPU - 2060

Monitor - LG Ultragear 27-inch

A good 750watt ups

 

I want to build a pc that i dont have to touch for next 5-6 years and play games on atleast medium 1440p. (I am not sure about 60 hz or 144hz). I wanted to buy a 3060ti but with the current prices i cant afford. So i plan on upgrading the gpu maybe 1-2 years later.

 

Another doubt I had was that India is a pretty warm country and the place where i stay can get uptp 32 C ambient will the stock amd cooler be enough?

Yes, You are spending too much on some parts, That are motherboard, SSD, PSU, While getting not good enough RAM and definitely worst GPU...

[Xobtik]

Ohh ok can you recomend some alternatives then?
My choices for the motherboard was that since its x570 and when amd will release a new cpu i can easily change it without changing the board. But then again will i need to change cpu with my work load. Probably not.
 

Also with the ssd. I went gen 4 cause with the new resizable BAR thingy, it thought it would help with the performance.

What is bad with the ram ?

Ye i know gpu is bad but it is temporary, so i can upgrade soonish

Next gen will most likely be on DDR5 and AM5 socket, so you would need to change the board anyway. Get B550 instead and get a AIO for that cpu. I can recommend arctic liquid freezer II 140. Or some air mid range air cooler.

Ohh ok cool, and what about Psu, ram, ssd and other stuff ? Is that ok or am i spending too much on that as well?

PSU is fine, SSD..meh. I would get a samsung 980 pro instead. At least here in scandinavia the samsung is better value and same speed more or less. I would skip HDD and just get a bigger SSD, at least 1TB. Ram is fine, unless you plan on tweaking. If not just keep the 3200 as its just plug and play. And get a MSI B550 Tomahawk

The Seagate 520/530 is a good SSD, so no reason to change it unless he can get the Samsung for less. A WD Black SN850 or Sabrent Gen 4 would be another good alternative.

[Dr0idGh0sT]

For 2000$ price range, getting Gen 4 SSD is not a good investment, As well as 32GB ram is not necessary. 

So, I had a time and looked at amazon.in

I came up with reasonable list for you depending what was available for reasonable prices.

CPU - https://www.amazon.in/AMD-Ryzen-5600X-Processor-100-100000065BOX/dp/B08166SLDF

Cooler (Yes, This is not the best cooler, But I could not find anything else for reasonable price and it will be absolutely enough to keep 5600X in good temps) - https://www.amazon.in/DEEPCOOL-GAMMAXX-GT-Motherboard-Supported/dp/B084Z5P1N8

Motherboard - https://www.amazon.in/MSI-Motherboard-RyzenTM-Desktop-Processors/dp/B08BCQF1BD/

RAM - https://www.amazon.in/G-SKILL-Trident-Memory-Module-3200Mhz/dp/B01MTDEYHU

Video Card (you had 2060 in list, That's very slow..., I also looked at 3060 ti but its too expensive, So 6600XT seems best option) - https://www.amazon.in/ASUS-RadeonTM-GDDR6-Graphic-DUAL-RX6600XT-O8G/dp/B09C17P89J

NVMe Gen 4 SSD for reasonable price (U can also get Gen 3 for less Kingston A2000 had normal price) - https://www.amazon.in/GIGABYTE-PCI-Express-Interface-Performance-GP-AG41TB/dp/B08FCY3BM2/

PSU - https://www.amazon.in/ASUS-RadeonTM-GDDR6-Graphic-DUAL-RX6600XT-O8G/dp/B09C17P89J/

Case - https://www.amazon.in/Lian-Li-LANCOOL-215-Motherboard/dp/B08JM1M9YG/

You can also get Non RGB parts, But looking at prices made me choose RGB ones, Because at most it's 50USD more than non RGB same parts would have been and in my opinion it's worth it, But it's up to you to decide.

id get wd hdd, m.2 or ssd

get 3700x then stock cooler is fine

 you’re overspending on mobo, get b550 from asus, msi overheats

get 32gb of ram or more

superflower psu or whatever’s gold rated

honestly get whatever case you can afford, you don’t even need a case

6600xt at msrp or close to

 you can get a used monitor

i had a few questions.
I have heard that the stock cooler on AMD is pretty good. So how much better is this compared to the stock cooler.

I need to have wifi atleast for sometime before i can route my ethernet cable, is there a varient for that?

The link to the PSU is linking to the GPU.

Hmm but then I dont want to change CPU for a long time ngl. How far will the 3700x take me.

That cooler probably will preform better than stock and also run quieter.  Tower coolers with heat pipes dissipate heat a lot more effectively than the stock cooler design.

I would suggest the 5900X if you don't want to switch your CPU for a long time. You won't use all the cores now, but you will appreciate it later down the line. If that's too much, the 5800X would probably last most a long time as well. 3700X is not bad, if it's on a good deal, I wouldn't hesitate to buy it. Depends on the pricing on your region really.

Oh, in your case, an AIO might be better than an air cooler.

well longer because it’s 8 cores

 now you could wait for intel 12th gen because i5 will have 10 cores and if you pair it with a decent mobo thatll last you longer. in all honesty if i was aiming for 5+ years i would try to get 10 to 16 cores. 32gb of ram now and another 32 in the future, that’s 64 alltogether. thatll be completely fine. you can mine with your gpu so i guess you could spend a bit extra there. stock cooler for me at least has been fine because it’s65tdp cpu and not 125. ill be honest if you have a stock cooler and a 65tdp cpu you don’t have to upgrade but if it’s125tdp then you could either do aio that has 5 year warranty or air cooler. stay away from nzxt and get corsair. if i had to buy an air cooler id get a enermax t50.
